Can you push to make sure the rain forest also gets demolished? Please these trees are really in the way. "
I take it you are being cinical??? :silly:
Actually, i dont think it COULD be done. Maybey after a century or 2 if we tried really, REALLY hard. (cutting down trees as fast as we possibly could.)
But it will never happen.
Do you realize that even though this country is over 200 years old, and that we are the most developed country on the planet, that something like only 5 percent of all our land is developed??
5 percent, after 2 centurys. :think:
This includes everything from skyscrapers to cities to towns to public roadways to mining areas to your driveway......
5 percent. and this includes our "pre environmentally friendly" industrial stage.
(you know, -w- the logging almost wherever you want , mine wherever you want, no emmissions musclecar stuff..........the good ol days!) :)
In other words the environmentalists are a bit over concerned.
(read ie: WHACKO.)
Besides if we cut all the forests down, then there would be no more shady trails to ride our dirtbikes at.................... :scream:
